A Novel Multidisciplinary Approach for Reptile Movement and Behavior Analysis

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We present a novel multidisciplinary approach capable of advancing research on reptiles’ behavior. Our approach uses integrated tools and methods for the digitization, reconstruction, and visualization of reptiles and their behavior. We (i) record movement through tri‐axial accelerometers, video cameras, and motion capture systems; (ii) ground‐truth ...

EEMtoolbox: A user‐friendly R package for flexible ensemble ecosystem modelling

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Forecasting ecosystem changes due to disturbances or conservation interventions is essential to improve ecosystem management and anticipate unintended consequences of conservation decisions. Mathematical models allow practitioners to understand the potential effects and unintended consequences via simulation.

Towards a New Reference Dataset for Northwest Arabian Pottery: A Preliminary Characterization of the Fabrics, Techniques, Shapes and Decoration of the Pre‐Islamic Pottery From Dadan (Third Millennium bce–Early First Millennium ce)

Arabian Archaeology and Epigraphy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The site of Dadan, in the al‐ʿUlā valley, is one of the major and longest‐settled ancient oasis settlements in northwest Arabia. As part of the Saudi‐French Dadan Archaeological Project (CNRS/RCU/AFALULA), a study of its pre‐Islamic ceramic assemblage has been underway since 2020.

Opposite effects of climate and land‐use/cover change on Mediterranean herpetofauna: Insights from the southern Apennines

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
Climate change (CC) and land‐use/cover change (LUCC) are threatening species worldwide, with amphibians and reptiles being particularly vulnerable. In Cilento, a highly biodiverse Mediterranean area in the southern Appenine protected by a National Park and 30 Natura 2000 Network sites, 11 amphibians and 16 reptiles could disappear in the future ...

Using life history to predict outcomes of conservation translocations of herpetofauna

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
We collected data on key life history traits for all herpetofauna profiled in the IUCN Global Conservation Translocation Perspectives series to examine how life history can predict outcomes and difficulties of conservation translocations. The relationships we found provide important insights for conservation practitioners that can be used in the ...
